Great App

I’m very happy with this app. I estimate that when data is written by hand in a field notebook, on average 30-60 minutes is needed in the office to create electronics data sheets, proofread, edit and finalize. With Ecobot, each data sheet requires just a few minutes of office time to finalize.

Huge time saver!

Tons of time saved in the office. Forms are completed in the field and QA is so easy for us now. Really loving the vegetation lookup tool, as I don’t always know the full name and/or correct spelling.

Just what we were looking for!

This app is exactly what we’ve been looking for for several years. It includes everything you need to complete efficient and accurate wetland delineations. The app is well thought out, intuitive, accurate, fast, and efficient.

Faster, more accurate delineations.

Ecobot helps us speed up our delineations significantly. The built-in features allow us to quickly look up the indicator statuses of plants or to reference hydric soil indicators. Additionally, we spend far less time inputting field data after the fact because it is easy to complete all the fields at the moment. This app saves us time and helps us be more accurate and precise.

I've reduced my office work.

The improved efficiency has helped me focus on other tasks I need to do in the office. Because of Ecobot, I can instead focus on other work such as proposals, rather than wasting time typing data forms from notes.
